Definitions

  • the invention relates to a wiper blade, for example for a windscreen wiper device for a vehicle, comprising a metal yoke which is attached to a metal carrier in such manner as to be capable of pivoting movement about a pivot axis, with the interposition of a joint part of plastic material, which is stationary with respect to said carrier, whereby both said carrier and said yoke have a substantially U-shaped cross-section at the location of their interconnection, and whereby said yoke is positioned substantially within said carrier, with the interposition of said joint part.
  • the material of the joint part is referred to as plastic, which include any synthetic material having some flexibility.
  • a wiper blade of this type is usually provided with a plurality of yokes, in order to ensure that the wiper blade is in contact with the, usually curved, windscreen along its entire length.
  • Each yoke is thereby pivoted to the end of a carrier in its central portion, which carrier itself may also be a yoke.
  • the invention particularly relates to the manner in which the central portion of a yoke is pivoted to the end of a carrier.
  • EP-A-0412145 describes a wiper blade whereby the carrier and the yoke are pivotally interconnected by means of a pivot pin, which is secured in the yoke and which can rotate in two holes provided coaxially in the carrier.
  • said carrier is provided with a plastic part which extends into the said holes of the carrier. The pivot pin rotates in the plastic part, therefore.
  • EP-A-0631914 describes a wiper blade likewise comprising a pivot pin, whereby said pivot pin does not rotate in the plastic part, however, but is fixedly provided therein, so that the pivot pin, together with the plastic part, forms the joint part between the carrier and the yoke. The yoke thereby rotates with respect to the joint part.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a joint between the end of a carrier and the central portion of a yoke, whereby it is possible to realize a reliable construction comprising only a few parts.
  • the yoke is in each leg of the U-shaped cross-section provided with a protrusion at the location of the pivot axis, which protrusion pivotally engages in the joint part.
  • said protrusions may be substantially cylindrical and extend outwards on either side with respect to the yoke.
  • a cylindrical protrusion may be made in a simple manner by means of a stamping operation during the manufacturing of the yoke. Since the protrusions extend outwards the two bearing supports of the yoke are spaced relatively far apart, as a result of which the forces exerted on said bearings are relatively small.
  • the joint part may be attached to the carrier by engaging with projecting parts in recesses provided in the carrier.
  • the recesses in the carrier, into which the parts of the joint part extend, can be provided in the sheet material of the carrier in a simple manner during the manufacturing of said carrier.
  • the carrier may have two holes provided coaxially with the pivot axis, whereby a cylindrical portion of the joint part is provided through each of the holes and whereby the protrusion of said yoke extends into said cylindrical part.
  • the joint part is maximally supported by the carrier at the location of the bearing of the yoke by means of the protrusions.
  • the invention furthermore relates to a method of manufacturing a wiper blade as described above, wherein the two protrusions are stamped into the sheet material of which the yoke is made prior to forming said material into the U-shaped cross-section. This operation does not require an additional processing step, because it can be combined with other processing steps.
  • the wiper blade may be manufactured by providing the carrier with said joint part prior to positioning the legs of the U-shaped part of the carrier into substantially parallel relationship, whereby parts of said joint part, which abut against the carrier, are bent outwards, whereupon the carrier and the joint part are given their final shape after the yoke comprising the protrusions has been positioned within the joint part.
  • the deformation of the carrier into its final shape will cause the yoke to be locked in the joint part.
  • the wiper blade may be manufactured by positioning the joint part on the yoke under deformation of the joint part, in such a manner that the protrusions are located within corresponding recesses of the joint part, after which said joint part is fitted in the carrier, being confined therein in such manner as to be blocked against said deformation. Also in this manner the joint part is locked with respect to the yoke, because of the fact that deformation of the slightly flexible joint part is prevented by the presence of the carrier.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show the plan view and the side view of a wiper blade, which consists of a first yoke 1, which can be pivotally attached to an oscillating arm of a windscreen wiper device of a vehicle at the location of pivot axis 2.
  • the first yoke 1 functions as the carrier of two secondary yokes 3, which secondary yokes 3 function as the carriers of four tertiary yokes 4. All yokes are pivot-mounted in their respective carriers, so that a force exerted at the location of pivot axis 2 is distributed more or less evenly over the ends of the tertiary yokes 4, capable of being transferred to a rubber wiper means, which can be fitted on the ends 5 of the tertiary yokes 4.
  • each yoke (3,4) and its respective carrier (1,3) is effected with the interposition of a joint part 6, which is made of plastic material.
  • Figures 3-6 respectively show the four embodiments to be described in more detail hereafter, and the joint between the carrier 1 (first yoke) and the yoke 3 (secondary yoke) of each part will be explained in more detail with reference to Figures 7-60.
  • Said Figures only show the carrier 1 in sectional view at the location of recess 7, whilst yoke 3 is only shown in sectional view at the location of protrusion 11.
  • Figures 7-20 relate to the first embodiment.
  • the joint part 6 is shown in several elevational views ( Figures 7-10) and sectional views ( Figures 11-16), which clearly illustrate the shape of joint part 6.
  • Joint part 6 is not only positioned within the carrier 1, but also to a large extent outside said carrier 1.
  • joint part 6 is provided with protrusions 9 ( Figure 10), which engage in recesses 10 ( Figure 3) of carrier 1, thus effecting a snap connection.
  • Figures 17-20 show the manner in which joint part 6 is provided.
  • Figure 17 shows how joint part 6 is placed on yoke 3 under deformation, which yoke 3 is provided with cylindrical protrusions 11, in such a manner that said protrusions 11 will come to lie within holes 12 of joint part 6 ( Figure 18).
  • carrier 1 is slid over joint part 6 ( Figure 19), in such a manner that carrier 1 prevents joint part 6 from being deformed such that yoke 3 can be removed.
  • joint part 6 is fixedly connected with carrier 1, whilst yoke 3 is pivotally journalled in joint part 6 by means of protrusions 11.
  • Figures 21-34 show the second embodiment.
  • Figures 21-24 are elevational views of joint part 6 and Figures 25-30 are sectional views of said joint part 6.
  • Joint part 6 is secured in carrier 1 by means of a snap connection, whereby cams 15 (Figure 25) cooperate with the shape of recess 7 ( Figure 4).
  • Figure 31 shows how joint part 6 is first placed on yoke 3 under deformation upon assembly, whereby protrusions 11 extend into holes 12 (Figure 32). Then joint part 6 is locked against bending back by sliding carrier 1 over joint part 6 ( Figures 33 and 34).
  • Figures 35-46 show the third embodiment, whereby Figures 35-38 are elevational views and Figures 39-42 are sectional views of the joint part 6.
  • assembly takes place in that carrier 1 has not yet been given its final shape comprising a U-shaped cross-section when joint part 6 is being fitted.
  • carrier 1 has not yet been given its final shape comprising a U-shaped cross-section when joint part 6 is being fitted.
  • leg of said U-shaped cross-section are still in a position in which they extend slightly away from each other (Figure 43)
  • joint part 6 is placed into carrier 1, and that in such a manner that cylindrical parts 13 of joint part 6 extend into recesses 7 of carrier 1 ( Figure 44).
  • yoke 3 is positioned within said assembly ( Figure 45), after which carrier 1 is given its final shape by deformation of the material (Figure 46).
  • Protrusions 11 thereby extend into holes 12 provided in the cylindrical parts 13 of joint part 6.
  • the locking of joint part 6 with respect to yoke 3 is effected in that deformation of joint
  • Figures 47-60 show the fourth embodiment, whereby Figures 47-50 are elevational views and Figures 51-56 are sectional views of the joint part 6.
  • assembly takes place ( Figures 57-60) by deformation of joint part 6 ( Figure 57), so that said joint part can be placed on yoke 3.
  • carrier 1 is slid over joint part 6 ( Figure 59), whereby said joint part snaps into carrier 1 as a result of the cooperation between cams 15 ( Figure 51) and the shape of recess 7 ( Figure 6).
  • an effective and reliable joint between carrier 1 and yoke 3 is realized with a minimum number of parts.
